Why do many people say that German cameras are the best?

Because personal feelings are different, I will not evaluate the image quality, but I personally feel that Leica cameras have stronger colors and higher definition.

The workmanship of Leica camera is still quite good, right? All the parts fit perfectly.

In fact, the main reason for everyone's entanglement is the aristocratic price of Leica cameras. Is the camera of high quality? Of course it's high. But is it worth buying a camera with the money from buying a car? This is debatable. After all, 60,000 to 70,000 yuan is not a price that anyone can ignore.

When I was a child, my uncle had a German camera. I forgot the specific brand and model. At that time, I didn't understand English. My uncle said that Germany on the camera represents Germany, so I was deeply impressed ... Leica (including all European brands) in the movie era is not as small as it is now, and fans with more money can have one; However, after entering the digital age, perhaps in the face of the impact of Japanese brands, manufacturers such as Leica began to take the aristocratic and niche route (there is a Leica store in Beijing, which is located in Dongdan, next to those luxury watch stores)-it is impossible to expect reporters to take Leica cameras into cities, villages and even battlefields to shoot the covers of those magazines as in the middle of last century-instead, Canon Nikon took over. Leica is basically a luxury now, for the rich and those who pursue petty bourgeoisie. Functionally, a paraxial viewfinder alone cannot meet the requirements of many scenes.

Therefore, the so-called "everyone says Leica is good" is actually parroting. First of all, this price is bound to mean that most players have never even seen it. Let alone evaluate the "image quality".

M8/M9 has never been used.

Leica X 1 actually, street shooting is quite good, but it is still too expensive. In front of Ricoh or Sima, X 1 performed well, but it would still be a tragedy immediately.

Other Leica DC's, such as D-LUX, are purely for making money. They are made in Japan and are priced at two Panasonic LX with cola labels. Many critics say that D-LUX is better than Panasonic LX. I think for DC, I still care more about money than this improvement in image quality ~ I'd better buy Panasonic honestly ~

So don't talk about boycotting Japanese goods. If we boycott Japanese cameras, we are really useless ... and the domestic market in Japan is basically self-produced, but it will not be affected. The real victims are ourselves.
